The Italian System in the ecological and energy transition of the territories

The fight against climate change and the mitigation of its effects will be the great challenges of the century. To date, the Euro-Mediterranean area is among the most exposed to damage resulting from Planet Fever: extreme meteorological phenomena, drought, desertification are just some of the examples before everyone's eyes. Among the anthropic activities that release greater quantities of greenhouse gases are those resulting from the use of fossil fuels. As regards Europe, it is estimated, for example, that energy processes caused 78% of the EU's total emissions in 2015. The types of energy sources and consumption therefore have an enormous impact on the climate.
